WORKSAFE VICTORIA FATALITIES DATABASE

WorkSafe Victoria has created a new interactive tool on confirmed workplace fatalities. The data can be broken down by year, gender, age, category, industry and size of organisation. 

The data can be broken down by year, gender, age, category, industry and size of organisation. The overview reveals that since 2018, the year with the most fatalities was 2021, with a total of 90. Of these, 82 were male.

The page notes that the data is subject to revision as additional information and new reports are received and processed. Historical published data can change.
